Was frigging great temps here today! Only about 105 with a slight breeze.
Put some time on the KX, not much, and had a couple other guys that are more familiar ride it. One kid that was killing it on his '16 450 loved it. But when the bike died or stalled, restarting was a bitch. I've always had problems starting it though.
Talked with one of the local guru guys who has some experience and he said that he always had to raise the float level more than recommended. The kid with the 450 said he felt the same thing, like it needed more fuel.
So kinda wondering what to do here. It does have Stage 1 Hotcams in it so I'm wondering if I should richen the mixture, but then am thinking that even though the cams might be holding the valves open longer, the mix shouldn't be affected by that...???
Right now the MJ is a 178, and I dont have a larger one.
It never stalled or died for me though, but I wasn't anywhere near as aggressive as they were when riding it.
It's a way different bike than than YZ's. Huge engine braking, steering is all different.
I noticed a decent amount of head wobble coming out of the corners a few times. Nothing too out of control, but definitely not as stable as the Yamaha's.
But the engine is solid, very strong and fast.
I feel like I shouldn't have taken both bikes though. I didn't really get a chance to capitalize on the progress made on the 125 last weekend, and I didn't really spend enough time on the KX to get a good feel for it, other than its way different.
But I'll make it to work tomorrow morning so I guess it was a good day at the track.
